How to place a tile on the windows 8 start screen programmatically?

Question

I am building a windows store app. I want the tile of that app at a specific location of my start screen. Is there any API to code the position of my tile on start screen?

Answer 1

No. You can't control where the tile goes - that is up to the user to determine. The central pillar of the Windows 8 environment design philosophy is that the user is in control.
